Today I have some price level lines and trend lines that don't move when I move the chart up and down. I had a similar problem with some indicators which was solved by changing the scaling to 'same as instrument', but I can't do that with price levels.

Try to mouse right click on the price scale and see which price is selected.Today I have some price level lines and trend lines that don't move when I move the chart up and down.

Hello whitefox,
Are the drawings plotted by an indicator?

Would you be able to come to our live chat to demonstrate the issue?
Re: price levels/trend lines don't move with chart
I may have figured out this problem and it may be a bug.
Right now it seems that if I draw a price level, and while it is selected and hit the up or down arrow to scroll the chart up and down, then then chart scrolls but all the price lines stay in the same place on the screen. After I start scrolling they seem to be stuck in this mode and I have to delete all drawings and start over.

Re: price levels/trend lines don't move with chart
I have tested this scenario:
- Applied the Horizontal Line drawing to the chart. The price level of the line is 1,380.00.
- While the drawing is still selected i moved it up and down by the arrow buttons. The line and the chart were moving respectively. The line stays at 1,380.00 price level.
Re: price levels/trend lines don't move with chart
Yes, it sounds like you did it correctly. I was able to reproduce the problem, however I then tried clearing ALL studies as well as drawings. I then drew the price levels and tried scrolling up and down and this time everything seemed to work correctly (i.e. the lines moved with the bars).I have tested this scenario:Did i do this the same way you do to reproduce the issue?

If I can reproduce by adding certain studies first I will post it.

Re: price levels/trend lines don't move with chart
Ok. By the way, it looks like the line was somehow drawn not manually but by an indicator. Try to reproduce it without any indicators. If you can reporduce it with a particular indciator, please send the exported indicator, exported symbol(s) and the workspace. Describe the steps to reproduce it as detailed as possible.I was able to reproduce the problem, however I then tried clearing ALL studies as well as drawings.
